"A panzerotto at Panzerotti Bites makes us wish that every frozen pizza pocket of our youth would take a trip to Puglia to learn a thing or two. Made to order and oozing with cheese and tomato sauce, the classic fried version is perfect for a weekday lunch or an afternoon snack after drinking at nearby Talea with friends who just had a baby and no longer come out at night. Panzerotti has some tables, but it’s pretty dark, so sit out back under hot pink umbrellas or take your to-go panzerotto on a walk." - willa moore, molly fitzpatrick, bryan kim, neha talreja, will hartman
"I went in skeptical, having grown up inhaling homemade panzerotti every holiday, but the squad at Panzerotti Bites in Cobble Hill knows exactly what they're doing: the dough is fresh and crisp, the fillings are paired just right, and there are so many variations it was hard to stop at just four — I chose a classic tomato and mozzarella; an otherworldly mortadella and pistachio; an artichoke-and-mozzarella; and a sandwich-style option with prosciutto crudo di Parma. I'll be doubling my order next time." - Eater Staff
"The panzerotto at Panzerotti Bites makes us wish that every frozen pizza pocket of our youth would take a trip to Puglia to learn a thing or two. Made to order and oozing with cheese and tomato sauce, the classic fried version is hands-down the best walking snack in the area. Swing by for a light weekday lunch, or for an afternoon snack after spending a beery Saturday at Talea with friends who just had a baby and no longer drink at night. There are tables inside, but it’s pretty dark, so sit out back under hot pink umbrellas or take your panzerotto to-go and continue your walk down Smith Street.

"Biting into a panzerotto at Panzerotti Bites in Carroll Gardens makes us wish that every frozen pizza pocket of our youth would take a trip to Puglia to learn a thing or two. They’re made to order, so you can watch while a small circle of pizza dough is filled, sealed, and deep-fried, emerging as a crisp golden pocket oozing so satisfyingly with cheese and red sauce that you might forget you are here to eat, not stare. Get the classic or the artichoke—they also have sweet panzerotti, and nearly everything is under $10. There are tables inside, but it’s pretty dark, so eat in the backyard under hot pink umbrellas or take your panzerotto to go. Don’t go far though—you’ve got to have that first bite hot." - Willa Moore
"An Italian panzerotti restaurant in Cobble Hill, Panzerotti Bites is one of the 28 small food businesses named as still waiting for PPP funds." - Luke Fortney
